Am I the only one who thinks part of Molly Moon's success has been based on the fact that it's Summer? Give it a month, no more lines down the block.

Old news. Weeks old.

What the fuck are you talking about?

I like my desserts and I like ice cream, but I've never understood the fascination with high fat content ice cream...it's like eating flavored vegetable shortening or what I would imagine Pond's face cream must taste like...

Partially, yes. And also partially because it's really the only home made ice cream in town. But it's also damn good. The winter will test how tough they are and how tough Seattle ice cream lovers are.
When I lived in Minneapolis there were always customers at Sebastian Joe's and Grand Ole Creamery. Even when it was in the single digits.

in Minneapolis, people rejoice if it gets above 20 degrees in winter...but then again, after two or three months of it hovering around zero, or below, 20 degrees DOES feel pretty damn toasty...

Considering I only managed to get myself to Wallingford last weekend (and that was work-related), I welcome this development.

Molly Moon, eh. Even sounds like moooo. But why the doggie in the logo? If you are going to enjoy the fruits of animal slavery, fruits blemished by the relentless slaughter of our babies, then the least you could do is be honest enough to look us in our big cow eyes and take responsibility for what you are doing. But no. You allude to cows with a euphonous human name the face of some vaguely cowlike dog. Don't think we don't piss in your milk. We so piss in your milk. Cowards.

@5: Same in Boston - plenty of local chains serving ice cream in the depths of February. Molly Moon's really is the only place to get a decent ice cream cone in Seattle.

I welcome this development too.

Bullshit. Molly moon is awful, the people are rude, and the place looks sterile. There are plenty of better places to get ice cream in Seattle. Husky Deli, Scoops Creamery, and the best Full Tilt. Not one of those places has an ice cream that tastes like a bowl of caramel flavored cum. (salty is an understatement in here "salty caramel")

Yay! I was saying to someone the other day that the Hill needed an ice cream parlor. Boo! It's close to my office and now I'm gonna get fat!

@12 That's exactly what I was going to post. I'm excited, but I'm also afraid my will-power (or lack of) will be a huge problem.

Caramel-flavored cum will sell on the Hill.

#14 for the win.

Molly Moon rocks, her ice cream is tops.

Thread complete.

Balsamic strawberry is my kryptonite.

@14 Totally. They should rename it that.

I really want to try Full Tilt, I hear they have chocolate bacon ice cream there.

will someone please - wait lucky #11 nailed it, molly moon's is overrated. good ice cream - not GREAT ice cream. for that y'all got to get to FULL TILT in WHITE CENTER for the more inventive, creative and tastier flavors. with no lines and ms. pac man, FULL TILT is it!! ditto for HUSKY DELI on the better ice cream...

Another vote for Full Tilt. Their Mexican Chocolate is what God eats for breakfast.

@5 So if it's 0 degrees outside, does ice cream somehow transform into a warm treat?

Anyone who moves into the Oddfellows deserves to be boycotted. Their ice cream cannot possibly be better for our community than a vibrant local arts scene. We need to make it impossible for any business to succeed in the Oddfellows, causing lease after lease default. We cannot reward people like Schroth for jacking up prices driving out tenants and gentrifying all life out of our beloved capital hill.

Boycott everyone that moves into Oddfellows so that lease after lease defaults on Schroth. Gourmet ice cream cannot replace a vibrant local arts scene. Let Schroth see that his destructive, gentrification is not welcome in our neighborhood.
